Just wondering what's out there that's worth reading. I did a search on amazon and there's a lot of stuff out there, but not a lot looked good.

What books have you read that you recommend highly in the field of Affiliate Marketing or Internet Marketing in general?

Thanks!

    There is no best book. Depend on your existing knowleadge, you need different guide. Affiliate Marketing is wide.

    Some books just introduce you about what is affiliate marketing. Then they tell you about social marketing, setting up site, merchant account, PPC, etc. But each topic is just a covered in a few pages. The information is not in depth enough. For this type of book, you might as well get it for free online.

      OK, I'll be more specific

      I'm looking for a good, up to date book that will explain some of the more advanced topics. Things like evaluating a niche, choosing products, pre-sell pages, etc.

      Basically, a book on how to do it WELL as opposed to just how to do it..

      I have that book as well -- even though it came out in Feb. 2009 -- much of the principles and techniques are still good to follow.

      Buy that book and stop worrying about the next 'greatest' thing.

    Would you consider ebooks too?

    I'm a big fan of Chris Rempel and his ebook Confessions of a Lazy Super Affiliate. Not sure how updated it is now but that book answered a LOT of questions for me when I first got into affiliate marketing.

    Hope that helps.

    You have everything you need here on this forum. There is no "Best" book in my opinion.
    The "War Room" is an excellent source for knowledge. Those guys really know their stuff.

    Best Regards,
    Anthony

    Not necessary the best but one good affiliate marketing book is "The Super Affiliate Handbook" by Rosalind Gardner. It's considered on of the classic and it's available as paperback on Amazon. It's way back from 2005 but the material is pretty solid and revelent.
